surface that can support the weight of the unit.
21) Never expose the apparatus to dripping or splashing or
place items such as vases, aquariums, any other item filled

22) Always place the back of the television at least one (1)
inch away from any vertical surface (such as a wall) to

The slots and openings are provided to protect the TV
